Camry in battle to stay America's best-selling car

Toyota has raised discounts and cut the Camry's price in an effort to keep it on top. In early July, the Camry's average sales price was the lowest of the nine top-selling midsize cars, according to data from J.D. Power and Associates obtained by The Associated Press. Discounts on the Camry were among the highest in the segment, according to the data.

Pretty much what I've been saying all along.

Having the lowest average transaction price out of the top 9 best sellers in the segment is simply awful.

The article doesn't take into account fleet sales but Toyota dumping a lot of Camrys into fleet, the heavy discounting to retail buyers, as well as retail buyers not opting to purchase the higher trims and/or load up on options are the reasons why the Camry's ATP is as low as it is.

IF this was one of the d3 people would be jumping all over it. Saying how craptastic there cars are since they need a discount to make a sale.

^^Good point, and Toysoda is relying on the reputation that is slowly slipping along with the fact the company would rather rack up volume over quality.

Would a buy any Toyota right now? NO..I can't think of any car I like.
